Packed in already?
No he’s just got 2jobs.
That’s not Andy’s role.
Someone else departed then?
That’s not Andy’s role.
Is it sausage or possibly ham 🤔
A positive indicator that we will be retaining an Academy next season?
We haven’t had a foundation phase leader (u/9 to u12) for quite a while now so it is an encouraging sign but still not a sign of an academy set up next season, we will only get a certain percentage of EFL funding next season so the club is going to have to self fund a fair chunk.
Also the facilities at the academy are in need of an upgrade especially with pitches these are in a poor state for a full time academy, also there needs to be a fair amount thrown in the equipment with the goals, again needing a good overall with new nets, wheels ETC
All this will depend on which league we are in next season but needs to be sorted asap as we are losing many of the talented players that will be are future, the youth team is one of the strongest for many a season and a credit to the coaches but again the likes of Ty sellers- Fleming, Harrison poulter and all of the other u18 2nd year scholars can on free’s.
That synopsis sounds as if it’s closure following relegation?
Efl funding down from. 600,000 to 300,000 next season. Doesn’t some money come from the government and the fa for academies?
